Gaia U Initiate Award

Description

The Gaia U Initiate Award, which can be displayed on your Gaia U profile as well as on social media profiles like LinkedIn, is earned by completing the free introductory course Regenerative Livelihoods by Design at Gaia University. The course takes approximately 2-4 hours to complete and consists of 3 modules, each with readings and activities:

Module 1 – A New Economy, A New Narrative

Navigating our way in the context of failing systems

Exploring the transition to a regenerative economy

Tying the larger transition to personal transitions

Learning to see the Patrix and unlearning oppressive patterns

Module 2 – Creating Resilient Communities and Livelihoods

Appreciating the role of community and finding support

Learning to learn within communities of practice

Becoming aware of the ‘brain drain’ pattern and working towards relocalization

After reading the material and completing the activities, the learner completes a follow-up 1-on-1 coaching session with a qualified Gaia U community member to reflect on the experience and talk through their plans for the future.
